Francis Crozier, known to the Inuit as Aglooka, was an officer in the Royal Navy and captain of the HMS Terrorduring the failed Franklin expedition. An experienced sailor and arctic veteran, Crozier served under the command of Sir John Franklin despite Franklin's relative lack of naval experience, owing to Crozier's Irish heritage. Following Franklin's death in 1847, Crozier assumed command of the expedition and enacted plans to rescue the stranded crews. By 1850, Crozier was the presumed sole survivor of the expedition, choosing to live in exile with the Netsilik rather than return to England.
